  • Paper on High-Frequency 3D Geomorphic Observation using Hourly LiDAR Time Series

    Can you imagine how much sand is being moved on the beach in the course of a week? Did you ever observe truckloads of sand being transported on the beach in the absence of storms and bulldozers? It is hardly possible to estimate to the naked eye, but can be quantified with permanent terrestrial laser…

  • Paper on Analysis of Feature Relevance in Deep Learning for 3D Point Cloud Classification

    A paper investigating the relevance of (pre-calculated) features for 3D point cloud classification using deep learning was just published in the ISPRS Annals of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing. The study presents a non-end-to-end deep learning classifier for 3D point clouds using multiple sets of input features and compares it with an implementation of the state-of-the-art…

  • PhD Colloquium “Deep Learning in Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Geospatial Information Processing”

    On 14th and 15th May, our 3DGeo group members Bernhard Höfle and Lukas Winiwarter were co-organizing and participating in the 4th colloquium for PhD students working on the topic of Deep Learning and its applications in Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Geoinformation Processing of the Deutsche Geodätische Kommission (DGK) and the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Photogrammetrie und…

  • Talk on methods and applications for large geospatial point clouds

    On Wednesday, Roderik Lindenbergh from TU Delft (NL) gave an exciting talk on robust geometry extraction in large spatial point clouds in the frame of the IWR colloquium at the Interdisciplinary Center for Scientific Computing. With focus on robust and novel methods of geoinformation extraction from these special datasets, the audience was taken on a…

  • Cutting-edge 4D LiDAR research in local newspaper

    This morning, the Rhein-Neckar-Zeitung (RNZ) published an article (in German) about our research on 4D LiDAR for snow cover monitoring. The angle for the article by Doris Burger is the Environmental Research Station Schneefernerhaus near the summit of the Zugspitze, where members of the 3DGeo recently acquired a highly temporal 3D time series dataset of…

  • 4D-LiDAR Snow Cover Monitoring at the Highest Summit of Germany

    The all-new terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) of the 3DGeo group (Prof. Bernhard Höfle) has been set up at the Environmental Research Station Schneefernerhaus over one week (mid of April 2018) to capture a unique highly temporal time series of the melting and degrading snow cover during the April’s week with the warmest daily maximum temperatures…

  • Highly Cited Paper in Geosciences: Eitel, Höfle et al. (2016)

    Point clouds and our 3DGeo research in Heidelberg are going beyond 3D, such as the new research project Auto3Dscapes. A detailed analysis of this research frontier has been published in Eitel, Höfle et al. (2016): Beyond 3-D: The new spectrum of lidar applications for earth and ecological sciences. The paper has just become a highly…
